First of all, I apologize for the incoherence of my previous message on
this topic, which was full of confusing typos and so on. I was somewhat
distracted when I wrote it, so I did not take the time to proofread it
before sending it off. I spend enough time scolding others on the list
for slopp
Has anyone had any real-world experience with the new Balu stopped mute?
I'm curious to know if the projection and control over tone colors are as
promised. $200 is a lot to drop on a stopped mute, but worth it if the
mute performs as advertised.

Sandra,
I was "stuck" with a few of these several years ago, Though they carry
the Getzen name on the bell - you may notice the name Willson stamped on
the side. These are essentially F (or e flat if you have the
extensions) cornets (by whatever name). and ... they don't have to be
terrible.
If it's long and thin - it's most likely the Getzen hybrid between trumpet
and horn. Unfortunately, the only part of it inspired by the horn seemed to
be the mouthpiece receiver size.
You might want to try a King Marching F horn - or perhaps even their Bb
model. I've heard good things about tho
It's a frumpet (not a flumpet - until you try to play it). Getzen? I
have two of them. They are in F. Until you try to play them. Then
they are not in F. Or any other key.
They are good medicine. Laughter is good medicine.
Do a google image search on 'frumpet'. The first hit is good en
Take a look at this web site for info on the frumpet (and much more)

Hello again.
I am a member of a community band in northern New Jersey (for those of
you in the area, it is the Palisades Park Fire Department Band), which
does many parades. Last year when I joined, I was the only marching
hornist. Since I was new to the music and I cannot affix a lyre to my
Just one person's experience. (By the way, this is basically the same
info as a review that I wrote on the Ken Pope website. If you've
already read that, then no need to read on).
After a great deal of research, I bought an MB 7 in January. I have
flown 12 separate legs with it on everythi

In 1973, I had the pleasure of playing a concert in which Barry Tuckwell
played Mozart 3rd and Strauss 1st concerti. This was a professional
orchestra and I had met, at his Carnegie Hall debut in 1968, and
corresponded with Mr. Tuckwell. I am a John Barrows style player and played
an Alexander 107G
I have a question. Though I have an opinion of my own, I would like to see how
this is practiced by many.
If your playing in an orchestra to accompany a horn soloist, how would you
decide on your tone quality? Should one player support the tone of the soloist
by playing the same or almost the
